Input group
Easily extend form controls by adding text, buttons, or button groups on either side of textual inputs, custom selects, and custom file inputs.
Other frameworks
CoreUI components are available as native Angular, React, and Vue components. To learn more please visit the following pages.
Basic example
Place one add-on or button on either side of an input. You may also place one on both sides of an input. Remember to place <label>
s outside the input group.
<div class="input-group mb-3">
<span class="input-group-text" id="basic-addon1">@</span>
<input type="text" class="form-control" placeholder="Username" aria-label="Username" aria-describedby="basic-addon1">
</div>
<div class="input-group mb-3">
<input type="text" class="form-control" placeholder="Recipient's username" aria-label="Recipient's username" aria-describedby="basic-addon2">
<span class="input-group-text" id="basic-addon2">@example.com</span>
</div>
<label for="basic-url" class="form-label">Your vanity URL</label>
<div class="input-group mb-3">
<span class="input-group-text" id="basic-addon3">https://example.com/users/</span>
<input type="text" class="form-control" id="basic-url" aria-describedby="basic-addon3">
</div>
<div class="input-group mb-3">
<span class="input-group-text">$</span>
<input type="text" class="form-control" aria-label="Amount (to the nearest dollar)">
<span class="input-group-text">.00</span>
</div>
<div class="input-group mb-3">
<input type="text" class="form-control" placeholder="Username" aria-label="Username">
<span class="input-group-text">@</span>
<input type="text" class="form-control" placeholder="Server" aria-label="Server">
</div>
<div class="input-group">
<span class="input-group-text">With textarea</span>
<textarea class="form-control" aria-label="With textarea"></textarea>
</div>
Wrapping
Input groups wrap by default via flex-wrap: wrap
in order to accommodate custom form field validation within an input group. You may disable this with .flex-nowrap
.
<div class="input-group flex-nowrap">
<span class="input-group-text" id="addon-wrapping">@</span>
<input type="text" class="form-control" placeholder="Username" aria-label="Username" aria-describedby="addon-wrapping">
</div>
Sizing
Add the relative form sizing classes to the .input-group
itself and contents within will automatically resizeโno need for repeating the form control size classes on each element.
Sizing on the individual input group elements isn’t supported.
<div class="input-group input-group-sm mb-3">
<span class="input-group-text" id="inputGroup-sizing-sm">Small</span>
<input type="text" class="form-control" aria-label="Sizing example input" aria-describedby="inputGroup-sizing-sm">
</div>
<div class="input-group mb-3">
<span class="input-group-text" id="inputGroup-sizing-default">Default</span>
<input type="text" class="form-control" aria-label="Sizing example input" aria-describedby="inputGroup-sizing-default">
</div>
<div class="input-group input-group-lg">
<span class="input-group-text" id="inputGroup-sizing-lg">Large</span>
<input type="text" class="form-control" aria-label="Sizing example input" aria-describedby="inputGroup-sizing-lg">
</div>
Checkboxes and radios
Place any checkbox or radio option within an input group’s addon instead of text. We recommend adding .mt-0
to the .form-check-input
when there’s no visible text next to the input.
<div class="input-group mb-3">
<div class="input-group-text">
<input class="form-check-input mt-0" type="checkbox" value="" aria-label="Checkbox for following text input">
</div>
<input type="text" class="form-control" aria-label="Text input with checkbox">
</div>
<div class="input-group">
<div class="input-group-text">
<input class="form-check-input mt-0" type="radio" value="" aria-label="Radio button for following text input">
</div>
<input type="text" class="form-control" aria-label="Text input with radio button">
</div>
Multiple inputs
While multiple <input>
s are supported visually, validation styles are only available for input groups with a single <input>
.
<div class="input-group">
<span class="input-group-text">First and last name</span>
<input type="text" aria-label="First name" class="form-control">
<input type="text" aria-label="Last name" class="form-control">
</div>
Multiple addons
Multiple add-ons are supported and can be mixed with checkbox and radio input versions.
<div class="input-group mb-3">
<span class="input-group-text">$</span>
<span class="input-group-text">0.00</span>
<input type="text" class="form-control" aria-label="Dollar amount (with dot and two decimal places)">
</div>
<div class="input-group">
<input type="text" class="form-control" aria-label="Dollar amount (with dot and two decimal places)">
<span class="input-group-text">$</span>
<span class="input-group-text">0.00</span>
</div>
Button addons
<div class="input-group mb-3">
<button class="btn btn-outline-secondary" type="button" id="button-addon1">Button</button>
<input type="text" class="form-control" placeholder="" aria-label="Example text with button addon" aria-describedby="button-addon1">
